Kimani Vidal Active to Lead Backfield in Week 18

Sunday, January 4, 4:00 PM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal (neck) is officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Denver Broncos. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction after logging back-to-back full practices. The 24-year-old returns from a one-game absence and is expected to lead Los Angeles' backfield with rookie Omarion Hampton (ankle) sidelined. With that being said, we expect fellow running back Hassan Haskins to carve out a role, too. There's some uncertainty about how the Chargers will fare with Trey Lance quarterbacking the offense against a strong Broncos defense. If the Bolts struggle to move the ball on Sunday, we could see Vidal drop to the low-end RB3/flex tier.

DJ Giddens Inactive for Week 10

Sunday, November 9, 8:41 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens is a healthy scratch ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Giddens won't be active for the third straight game as he hasn't played since Week 7. The Colts will ride with Tyler Goodson and Ameer Abdullah as the backups to Jonathan Taylor. So far this season, Giddens has rushed the ball 18 times for 66 yards with zero touchdowns. He could be worth stashing in dynasty leagues, but doesn't need to be rostered outside of that.
